No one wants weeds taking vital nutrients away from their garden plants. Whether you’re growing fruits, vegetables, or flowers, weeds will hinder growth for the plants you care about. To help you keep a beautiful, healthy garden, we’ve put together this short list of three of the best weed control tips.
- Mulch. Adding mulch will help your garden plants while limiting weed growth. Mulch blocks sunlight from reaching weeds, preventing them from thriving in your garden. Mulching serves other purposes outside of weed control, too, such as soil temperature regulation and nutrient enrichment from certain organic types of mulch.
- Limit water distribution to your plants. Give your garden plants water, not weeds. This can be hard to do if you’re blanket watering your garden, but with help from a landscaping company you trust, you can make sure that water distribution methods are put into place to ensure your plants get the water they need and weeds are deprived of this important substance for their growth.
- Minimize gaps. This last weed control tip is primarily a preparatory measure for new gardens. When bringing new plants into your garden, minimize gaps between plants as much as possible. This will choke out weeds by taking away space for them to grow.
